Snack Time

Every morning we have a ten
minute snack at approximately 11:00. Healthy snacks are strongly
encouraged! Some suggestions that students enjoy include: yogurt,
fruit, cheese and crackers, peanut butter with apple slices, breakfast
bars, carrot sticks and ranch dressing, pretzels, 1/2 sandwich, quick
breads or bagels with cream cheese, trail mix, and popcorn. Your
child may like to bring his or her own juice drink for snack. A bottle
of plain water is allowed during the day.

Homework and Links

Third
grade is an important year for homework. We expect that students will
spend approximately 30 to 45 minutes on homework each night. Homework
will always be skills that were practiced in class. Every morning
homework is collected. Students who have not completed and returned the
assigned work on time will miss all or part of recess. In the Homework
Room they are given the opportunity to complete the missing homework
assignment. When the assignment is completed, he or she may go outside
to enjoy the rest of the recess. If there is a reason why your child is
unable to complete an assignment due to illness or family emergency,
please send in a note, and the assignment may be completed and returned
the following day.
